N Patten Builders & Carpentry – Custom Website Design for Crewkerne-Based Trades Business
The Project

With decades of combined experience in the trade, N Patten delivers high-quality building work, from extensions and renovations to bespoke carpentry. They pride themselves on reliability, craftsmanship, and word-of-mouth recommendations — and now they have a professional online presence to match.
